led salah in Madinah when the Qiblah was still towards Jerusalem and at the opposite direction of Makkah.
who, along with the performance of religious duties, were mostly tradesmen or farmers. Some had, however, dedicated their lives exclusively for prayer and spiritual discipline in the close company of the Prophet .
performed Tahajjud, it is on the right of those entering from Bab-e-Jibraeel. This platform is commonly mistaken to be the platform of the Ashab us-Suffah, it was actually built by the Turks for the service and custodial personnel of the masjid. This section sits outside the masjid in the time of the Prophet so could not have been the suffah.
. In the morning they would listen to his words of wisdom and at night, after sleeping for a while, they would spend the rest of the time in prayer. Because of their devotion and prayer, many of the Ashab us-Suffah were very poor and unable to afford clothing. Abu Huraira (r.a.) said, "I saw seventy of Ashab-us-Suffah in such a condition that none of them had complete dress for himself. Each one of them had one sheet that he tied up with his neck. Some of them had their sheets reach near their ankles but others' sheets reached just below their knees. Each of them used to hold the partition of his sheet with his hand lest his body is exposed".
came into the masjid to lead the congregational prayers, they would fall down due to weakness. Food given in charity to the Prophet was given to them, and when the Prophet was offered food as a present, he would invite them to share it.
would ask one of his other companions to take some of the Ashab us-Suffah for supper, and to entertain them as best they could. Sa`d ibn 'Ubada (r.a.) sometimes entertained as many as eighty men at once.
came to us while we were sitting on the 'Suffah' and asked if any one of us would like to go to the market of 'Buthan' or 'Aqiq' and fetch from there two she-camels of the finest breed without committing any sin or severing a tie of kinship. We replied that everyone of us would love to do so. Rasulullah then said that going to the masjid (mosque) and reciting or teaching two ayaat are more precious than two she-camels, three ayaat are more precious than three she-camels, and that similarly reciting or teaching of four 'ayat' is better than four she-camels and an equal number of camels." [Muslim]

and his two companions.
used to lead Salat-ul-Janaza at this site and the Sahaba continued this tradition. Abu Saeed Khudri (r.a.) described how and when this place was used for funeral services:
when someone was near death. The Prophet used to visit the ailing person and made supplication for his forgiveness. Many times the Prophet (s.a.w) stayed there till the completion of the funeral services. In this way the Prophet had to wait there for a very long time at each such occasion. We, therefore, decided to take the body of the deceased person near the Hujrat (houses of the wives of the Prophet) so that the Prophet can lead the salat more easily. The Prophet started offering Salat-ul-Janaza in the area described above."
used to enter the masjid through this door.
after the battle of Ahzab (the battle of the Confederates and also known as the battle of the Trench), and talked to the Prophet at the door step of Bab-e-Jibraeel. It is mentioned in Bukhari as narrated by Aisha (r.a.), 'After the battle of Ahzab, the Prophet disarmed himself and took a bath. In the meanwhile, Jibraeel عليه السلام came riding a pony and talked to the Prophet near the door step of of Bab-e-Jibraeel. Jibraeel عليه السلام said to the Prophet , "You have put away your arms but we (the angels) are still in battle uniforms. So you should come with us to attack the tribe of Banu Qurayza.' Aisha (r.a.) added, 'I was looking at Jibraeel عليه السلام through the cracks in the door of my hut. Jibraeel عليه السلام was covered with dust.'
initially sstayed for several months on his migration to Madinah, while Masjid-e-Nabwi and the adjoining rooms for his wives were being built.
entered Madinah he told the people to allow his camel to go her own way for "she is guided by Allah." All of the Muslims desired that he would lodge with them. Finally the she-camel knelt, but the Prophet did not dismount. The animal rose to its feet again, ambled ahead for some distance, and then turned back and knelt in the same place it had before. Masjid-e-Nabwi was erected on this very spot.
remarked humorously, "A man must follow his saddle," and went along with Abu Ayyub. Asad bin Zurara (r.a.) took hold of the halter, so he was allowed to take care of the camel.
would stay at this place, he offered the Prophet to stay on the upper storey but the Prophet could not agree to this proposal, as he felt that people frequently coming to meet him would disturb his (Abu Ayyub's) family. Thus the ground floor was made vacant for the Prophet . Abu Ayyub (r.a.) sent meals to him twice a day and whatever he left uneaten was shared by Abu Ayyub and his wife. He would look at the marks of the Prophet's fingers on the food and place his own fingers at the same spots as a source of blessing. Although the Holy Prophet had stayed at the ground floor according to his own wish, it was quite unbearable for Abu Ayyub (r.a.) and his wife that they should live upstairs while the Prophet was downstairs. They were much disturbed to think that in this way they were showing disrespect to the Prophet . One night they could not sleep and passed the whole night sitting in a corner of the roof. In the morning Abu Ayyub (r.a.) came to the Prophet and said, "O Prophet of Allah, we could not sleep at night but passed the whole night sitting in a corner of the roof." When the Prophet asked the cause, he replied, "Our parents may be sacrificed on you, we always remain thinking that we are committing disrespect to you. Last night this feeling grew to the utmost and we could not sleep." After this he requested, "O Prophet of Allah, have mercy upon us and kindly shift upstairs. We are your slave and shall remain satisfied under your feet." The Prophet granted his request and moved upstairs while Abu Ayyub and his wife moved to the ground floor.

was very much pleased, and remarked: "What a fine present (to Allah)! I think it would be best utilized if you distribute it among your own heirs." Abu Talha (r.a.) went and acted upon the Prophet's advice.
